Would you like your dog to greet people without jumping or inappropriate sniffing?

Would you like your dog to chew only on his/her toys?

Would you like your dog to walk on leash without straining or tugging?

Would you like to learn easy training techniques to use in everyday situations?

There is a revolution going on in dog training. Up until the last decade, most Professional dog trainers believed they could not completely train a dog to off leash control without applying some type of pain, considerable discomfort , or loud verbal reprimands. This thinking has been slowly changing as trainers have realized that using harsh corrections is not the most effective way to teach behaviors to a dog.

Through understanding and applying the principles behind behavior conditioning, the trainers at GRDT know that old-style techniques aren’t effective and can harm the trust between you and your dog.

GRDT’s trainers teach you to use positive reinforcement to teach & reward the behaviors that you want from your dog and stop the ones you don’t.

The methods we teach strengthen the relationship between you and your dog.

And unlike harsher methods that are heavily equipment-based and rely on split-second timing, GRDT’s methods are very forgiving of the owners skill levels and are not harmful to your pet.

Our clients experience success quickly and easily adapt our training techniques to successfully communicate with their dogs in the home environment. We teach REAL TRAINING which addresses real life situations, such as greeting people politely, chewing on appropriate toys, walking politely on leash, coming when called, waiting politely at a door.

When can we start training?
